There are quite a lot of movie cataloging applications on the market, each with its own set of benefits of attractive features, but few of them manage to look as elegant and appealing as Coollector. For me, Coollector's look is what makes this tool stand out from the crowd. Its interface is not only intuitive and easy-to-use, but also modern and eye-catching. It makes collectors feel like they are dealing with real, touchable collectible items, even if those items are actually only video files in digital form.

Anyway, Coollector is not just good-looking, but also packed with many handy features and functions. This powerful and feature-rich tool lets you add movies to your film catalog in a really fast and convenient manner, by importing their data from a huge database of more than 100,000 films and series. This data may include a lot of details, including movie's length, distribution, ratings, and so on. It even adds posters, screenshots, and pictures of characters and actors, and this is probably what makes the film inventories created using this tool look so awesome.

This tool will please all movie lovers, either they're old-style or modern users, as it allows cataloging films regardless of whether they’re stored on classic tapes or on newer media storage devices (like digital standalone files, DVDs, Blu-ray discs, etc). Noting down and tracking loaned titles is also possible.

A really cool feature is the fact that Coollector can also guess which movies you’d like to watch in the future. In order to do so it asks you to play a simple movie genre and taste prediction game in which you're required to rate the movies that you have already seen.

In conclusion, Coollector is a great tool that makes creating managing movie databases cool and entertaining.

I'm a movie buff, so I use Coollector nearly every day. I look up a movie (displayed on the left half of the screen), see who acted in it (displayed on the right half of the screen), then click on the actors to see what other movies they were in, then explore those movies, or explore other actors in those movies. It's very fast. To do this on IMDB, one must wait for pages to load, which can be very slow, but it's immediate on Coollector. Even so, every page in Coollector has a link back to the corresponding page on the IMDB website, so it's fast and easy to navigate to IMDB if one chooses. Besides actors, Coollector displays all the other cast and crew, so it helps answer questions about the history of producers and directors, something every film buff must know. Another feature I find useful is the ability to search for movies by genre and year, so if for example I want to know what Sci Fi movies came out in 1984 (the same year as the Terminator) it will display pages for all of those movies, ordered by popularity or IMDB rating. Thus it's a great tool to help discover movies one might have missed. The one thing I'd say to potential buyers of the software is don't let the low price worry you. This is a professional piece of software, even if it's priced like shareware. It's not buggy or incomplete, it is stable and vast. Anyone who is interested in film will love Coollector and will instantly regard it as essential.

The prices feature isn't enabled by default, but the users interested in that feature can go to the settings panel and select which Amazon stores (US, UK, France, etc...) they want to display the prices.
